Simulating Black Hole Thermality and Interior Scrambling on a Superconducting Quantum Processor

Ryan Smith, Ewan Forbes, Iason Sofos Andrew Hallam +1

We implement a chiral spin-chain black hole simulator on IBM superconducting quantum hardware and probe, within a common microscopic framework, both semiclassical horizon physics a…

Reconstructing non-Abelian braiding and fusion without anyon transport

Lucy Byles, Matthew D. Horner, Benjamin T. H. Varcoe +1

Non-Abelian anyons offer a route to fault-tolerant and universal quantum computing, but experimental access to their defining braiding and fusion data remains limited by the resour…

Anyons and Inherently Complex F-symbols

Matthew Buican, Peter Huston, Jiannis K. Pachos

Anyons in dimensions are not only characterized by exotic braiding statistics but also by intricate fusion properties. Two anyons may fuse into multiple topological charge se…

Probing metric fluctuations with the spin of a particle in a quantum simulation

Jiannis K. Pachos, Patricio Salgado-Rebolledo, Martine Schut

Exploring potential empirical manifestations of quantum gravity is a challenging pursuit. In this study, we utilise a lattice representation of a (2+1)D massive gravity toy model i…

Quantum teleportation between simulated binary black holes

Aiden Daniel, Tanmay Bhore, Jiannis K. Pachos +2

The quantum description of a black hole predicts that quantum information hidden behind the event horizon can be teleported outside almost instantaneously. In this work, we demonst…

Entanglement and apparent thermality in simulated black holes

Iason A. Sofos, Andrew Hallam, Jiannis K. Pachos

We investigate the apparent thermality of Hawking radiation in the semi-classical limit of quantum black holes using the mean-field limit of a chiral spin-chain simulator, which mo…
